The kneeling man has his palms pressed together in namaskar. Behind them stands a decorated deity murti or altar draped with garlands of yellow, orange, red and purple flowers, with a blue skirt-like cloth at its base and a golden kalasha-like object beside it. A white fan and a small wooden box sit in the foreground. The scene appears to be a blessing or darshan moment. Swamiji candidate is the seated figure with long swept-back hair, mala and saffron-toned robe, appearance-based probable identification.2013-11-10A photograph of a seated man in a rust-red and gold-bordered saffron-toned cloth with a long rudraksha-style bead necklace and a red tilak on his forehead, placing his right hand on the forehead of a standing man in a white shirt with a red-and-orange shawl. The seated man has long swept-back hair and a red wrist thread. Behind them is a golden deity figure, a peacock feather fan and red floral decor. Swamiji (probable): the seated man has long swept-back hair, ornate red-gold clothing and rudraksha beads, consistent with the page's Swamiji reference, so this is a probable in-person candidate performing a blessing on a devotee. Blurred hall background with red drapes.2014-03-21November 10 20132013-11-10November 10 20132013-11-10September 14 20142014-09-14A seated man with long dark swept-back hair, a rudraksha mala and gold ceremonial necklace, wearing a rust-red wrap, reaches to touch the forehead of a standing man with short curly hair who has a white vibhuti mark, folded hands and a red shawl printed with script over white clothes. Behind them an ornate gold throne-like seat, garlands and green foliage fill the setting, with a dark-robed figure partly visible at the right edge. The scene suggests a blessing exchange in a satsang-style setting; the seated man is a Swamiji (probable) by his long swept-back hair, rudraksha and gold necklace, seated on a gilded peetha.2014-12-24October 11 20142014-10-11
